A query will return all the results from three different sources ("1st display"). Unless already specified, the results from archives will be presented in a simple list view. By clicking one of the tabs on the top, you can switch to the results from one of the other sources.

When looking at search results in archives you can select either list view or context view. The context view is just another way to see the results in the hierarchical structure of the archives. Therefore, the number of results is exactly the same as the one you see in the list view. You may understand the results better in the context view because you can look at the single hits grouped by the document to which they belong. It also provides more background information in a broader context.
